Jacqueline du Pré & the Un-Rhododendron
Tuesday, May 08, 2018
Rosa 'Jacqueline du Pré' May 7 2018 |
Today, May 7 2018 I looked out of my living room window and
saw the first rose to open in our garden. The rose that has first opened in our
garden has never been the same one. Rosa ‘Jacqueline du Pré’ in spite of being
in shade most of the day has officially opened the rose season in the garden.
I moved a few weeks ago a very strange looking rhododendron.
It is Rhododendron macrosepalum ‘Linearifolium’.
It has very tiny lanceolate leaves and even smaller flowers. It has to be
protected. We purchased it many years in Seattle. I believe that I have finally
found a perfect spot for this un-rhododendron.
